Sustainability Mandate of the Community of Madrid
Comunidad de Madrid has an important environmental mandate. Almost 50% of the region area is protected due to its
environmental protection and conservation value. The geo-economic situation in Madrid creates the need to implement
policies for pollution management and waste treatment in densely populated urban areas.
Guided by this purpose, the region set out its Strategy for Sustainable Waste Management for the 2017-2024 period. In
relation with climate change and air quality, the Plan Azul+ 2013-2020 has been the backbone for eight years, particularly
focusing in tackling pollution and promoting energy efficiency.
Among the measures set out in the Plan Azul+, which is expected to be followed by a new Plan from 2021, we find the
following objectives by sector, which are representative of the regions' general sustainable strategy:

improvement of bicycle infrastructure, fiscal incentives for the transition towards greener technologies in private
transportation
Industry: reduction of emissions from industrial activities, like NOX produced by cogeneration plants
